HARDSCRABBLE WAY is a coming of age story about what happens when a family who had it all loses everything. Resilient teenage Delia Williams and her mother find themselves struggling to survive in a tent city on the outskirts of Philadelphia. When it seems things can't get worse, a social worker threatens to send Delia to foster care and hospitalize her mother. Inside the tent city, Delia and Emily overcome obstacles as they discover what truly matters. In the tradition of characters you met in The Secret Life of Bees, The Elegance of the Hedgehog, and White Oleander, Delia is a character who will warm your heart and stay with you. HARDSCRABBLE WAY was inspired by actual events.
